BISHKEK, 27 November (BelTA) – The Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) must constantly adapt to changing security challenges and threats, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said at the CSTO summit in Bishkek, BelTA has learned.
“The CSTO must constantly adapt to changing security challenges and threats to ensure the most prompt and effective response possible. I believe we have established a comprehensive system that includes a military component, anti-crisis tools, and a focus on combating terrorism and drug trafficking,” the head of state said.
Aleksandr Lukashenko noted that cooperation in cybersecurity is also advancing. He thanked the Kyrgyz side for hosting a CSTO conference on this topic.
“In the current security configuration across the Eurasian space, the CSTO remains relevant. The CSTO is needed. The relevance of our organization is confirmed by the dynamic development of all its components, specifically the military-political, military-technical, and the fight against transnational threats,” the president stated.
Aleksandr Lukashenko emphasized the critical importance of beginning work to refine the organization’s conceptual documents. “We hope that this work will continue in the near future,” he said.
